The Orlando Sentinel reported today that with condominiums selling for less than single-family homes, the condo-heavy MetroWest area racked up more new residential closings than any community in Metro Orlando during the first half of this year.  MetroWest is located in Southwest Orlando, a part of the Orlando real estate.

Baldwin Park in northeast Orlando was the second-busiest for closings between January and the end of June, with 81 properties — condos and single-family homes — sold, for an average price of $441,600 apiece.  Balwdwin Park, a planned Florida community  is located a little over two miles from downtown Orlando.  Its convenient location to the city’s workplaces, restaurants, cultural attractions and entertainment and sports venues makes it a very popular community.

Of the 20 communities with the most new-home or new-condo closings in Orange, Seminole, Lake and Osceola counties and part of nearby Polk, 12 were in Orange County, with two in each of the other counties.
